Authors After Dark, Rain Storms, and Vampire Panels
on August 16, 2013
Howdy! It’s storming like crazy here in Savannah, which is perfect for the vampire ball tonight! So far, this has been a wonderful conference. The vampire and witch panels were a lot of fun, and the ‘tying up loose ends’ with Kate Douglas was hilarious. Kate is always funny. Here’s a picture with MaryJanice Davidson from our vampire panel. Yeah, I had a bit of a fan girl moment there. 🙂
A few of us managed to get away from the conference hotel last night for dinner, and here’s a picture of Lynn Rush/Reese Monroe and Kendall Grey at dinner. We were heading back for the Bookie Awards and got caught in a deluge—I ended up soaking wet and with crazy hair. I mean, crazy, crazy, hair. Sue Brown from GraveTells stopped on the way (Sue’s the smart one) and bought an umbrella. I was running too fast to snap her picture, but here’s a pic of Sue with a Caribbean Marg. Looks good, right?
Hey – guess what? TWISTED won a bookie award for best novella/short story. I gave a quick thank you speech and have no clue what I said. I wasn’t expecting to win and hadn’t prepared…plus I was a little nervous being in front of all those people at a podium. It’s a lot easier to be on a panel.
Other than that, I’ve hung out with the magnificent Justine from Kensington, and we truly enjoyed the grilled cheese sandwich from Blue, here in the hotel. Also, here’s a quick picture of opening day…see what was on the table. 🙂
